Exports from the West Bank are controlled by Israeli authorities, and the movement of people by the Israeli Defence Forces.

An Israeli military watchtower stands at the junction to Taybeh village and soldiers can set up checkpoints on the outskirts.

Taybeh is allowed to export its beer to many countries, but Nadim Khoury's daughter Madees said the company faces problems because of the Israeli occupation.

"When the beer goes from Taybeh to an Israeli port, to Europe or to the US, or to Japan, it goes through a lot," she said.

"Even the beer gets humiliated like Palestinian human beings and they get to that country and then you have the internationals who drink a Taybeh and they're like, 'what, Taybeh, there's beer in Palestine?'"

Not only was Taybeh the first microbrewery in the region, Madees Khoury believes she is the Middle East's only female brewer.

"It's a fun job," she said.

"It's challenging, especially being a woman in the beer industry but also being a woman in the beer industry in an Arab country. That's like the double the challenge."
